Do you ever feel like the universe is testing you?

Yea, me too.

Specifically, my computer and I have always had phone issues. The six on my keyboard stopped working about two months ago, and the backspace and letter R yesterday.

A few weeks ago, my touchpad part, I have been working around these issues; I have an external mouse and an on-screen keyboard. Yet when more letters stopped working, my boyfriend brought me home an external keyboard, but I could only use the keyboard, or the mouse, not at the same time.

YEaaaa

The universe is testing my patience, oh and the keyboard is in Spanish. So if you have noticed my comments missing r’s, that is why. It has made me slow down my usually very efficient workday to a snail’s pace.

I am just now writing because it has been a headache. I sent my sister a picture of my setup, and she said we need to go to best buy again when you get here. I said, yep, it looks like it.

If I can make this setup work until July, who knows. I am sure I will. The thing is, my computer is barely 2.5 years old! A warning does not get a surface HP laptop.
